Hindustan Zinc deploys India’s first 250 MT capacity electric crane in Rajasthan
Jun-25-2026

Hindustan Zinc has deployed India’s first 250 Metric Tonne (MT) capacity electric crane at Zinc Smelter Debari in Rajasthan. The hybrid lifting machine, capable of operating on both diesel and electric power, marks a significant step in the company’s journey to decarbonize core operations and integrate clean technologies across industrial infrastructure.

The deployment is the latest in a string of forward-looking transitions under the company’s green roadmap that leads to a wider sustainability fleet. Over the past three years, a wide suite of clean mobility solutions has been rolled out across its operations - from operating India’s 1st underground battery electric vehicles (BEVs) to electric and LNG-powered logistics fleets. In partnership with GreenLine Mobility, the company has established Rajasthan’s largest EV bulker fleet with 40 electric bulkers and recently deployed first two electric buses for employee transit as part of a 41-bus green mobility initiative, which is notably the first EV passenger bus of the Rajasthan State. Earlier this year, the company also launched four electric loaders at the Rampura Agucha Mine, expanding the footprint of electric-powered equipment across operations.

Hindustan Zinc is engaged in the mining and smelting of zinc, lead and silver metal in India.
